New wheels put on this morning. Looking for spring to close the wheel gap. Certainly poke out a little more than I expected.
Vossen HF-3 20 x 10.5 ET30. Double Tinted Gloss Black. Michelin PS4S 275/30/20





Edit: Forgot to include wheel information
Edit 2: Accidently put spacer instead of springs.

You want them to poke out more?

I’m not quite understanding, they “ poke out “ more then you expected and you want spacers ? Or are you referring to lowering springs to remove some of that wheel gap ?

From @BANA5-45 pictures it looks like he has 5 to 7mm too much poke. It is a nice looking wheel/tire setup on a dark blue car.

Typing too quick. Looking for springs to close the wheel gap. NOT spacers.

Thank you for catching.

Been there, done that sadly. So look into H&R and see what they have on hand for you.

Looks very good with all the trim blacked out. They actually appeared two tone in the first photo.

Wheels are two tone (surprised me too when they arrived). Pictures online did not look that way but I like them more than I expected once on the car. I feel it gives the darker look but easier to see in the at night.

Close up picture of the wheels prior to mounting -
